The Flying Squirrel Turns Out to be a Fishy Goat

Despite her recent loss in the uneven bars, American gymnast Gabrielle Douglas has provided this year’s Olympic competition with some of its most magical moments. This amazing youngster has not only won the hearts of folks in the USA, she has made Olympic history by becoming the first African-American to win in the all round gymnastics event.

Douglas’ birth time is unknown at this time (click here to see a horoscope for Gabrielle Douglas charted for noon) but we do know that she has the Sun and four planets in Capricorn. Capricorn people are winners. They are not winners because they relish competition (like Aries) or because they have huge egos (like Leo). Capricorn people win because they recognize that victory is not achieved in one grand, inspired sweep; it is the final product of long term planning and lots of hard work.

Three Queens and the Sign of the Bull: Part 3

During the late 16th Century England, Scotland and France were all ruled by women: Elizabeth I, Catherine de Medici and Mary, Queen of Scots. These three women were connected by either blood or marriage and they shared the challenge of ruling in a time when only men were supposed to hold positions of authority. They also shared some astrological connections; in particular, all three were born with Taurus prominent in their horoscopes.

Mary, Queen of Scots was the youngest of these three queens, born Dec. 8, 1542 (New Style) with Taurus as her Rising sign. (Click here to see the horoscope of Mary, Queen of Scots.)

The Rising sign has much to do with one’s appearance and, with Venus ruled Taurus on the Ascendant, Mary was celebrated for her beauty. She also stubbornly intent on enjoying all the pleasures life had to offer her.
